Product Information
Designer

Charles and Ray Eames augmented the interior "collage" of the Eames House with numerous objects brought back from their extensive travels. The figure of a black wooden bird - evidently one of their most prized objects of American folk art - has stood in the centre of their living room for over fifty years. Also seen as an accessory in many of the Eameses' photographs, the bird figure from the Appalachian mountain region of the eastern United States. Based on the original artifact and in cooperation with the Eames Family, Vitra is now producing the first series of this figure.

Material(s): Solid alder, black lacquer finish, steel wire

Dimensions: H 10.8" W 3.5" D 10.9"

Charles and Ray Eames

A chair that looked like a potato chip. Another that resembled a "well-used first baseman's mitt." A folding screen that rippled...

With a grand sense of adventure, Charles and Ray Eames turned their curiosity and boundless enthusiasm into creations that established them as a truly great husband-and-wife design team. Their unique synergy led to a whole new look in furniture. Lean and modern. Playful and functional. Sleek, sophisticated, and beautifully simple. That was and is the "Eames look."

That look and their relationship with Herman Miller started with molded plywood chairs in the late 1940s and includes the world-renowned Eames lounge chair, now in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York.

Building its business since 1950, Vitra has developed a wide range of furnishings for the office, home and public spaces in collaboration with progressive designers. The Eames House Bird. Designed in 1910 by the House of Eames.

Customer Reviews

Happy!!! It's a beautiful piece of art.

I bought it for my wife, in her birthday. Delivery on time. Beatiful. A little overpriced, but it is worthy just seing her that happy.

Thanks.

Beautiful bird

This is a sleek and substantial item, and the photos hardly do it justice. The polished wood finish marries beautifully with the spare design.

Perfect Gift!

Purchased the Bird for my husband who is an architect. It now sits on the shelf of the bath he just remodeled facing south out the window.

elegant in it's simplicity

The Eames House Bird has been a perfect addition to our home. I lives up to expectations in every way from its simple, elegant form to the quality of construction. A stunning focal point on our danish modern credenza.

Great classic design and worth the money.

Simple, understated, well crafted, and beautiful. It is as wonderful as we expected it to be. This little guy sits proudly in a prominent spot in our living room. It was also delivered promptly and even the packaging was well designed.

I love it!!!

It is a bit pricey for a wooden bird, but I love it! My family room is furnished with Stickley furniture so it really compliments the look that I have.

By: Brenda B., Homeowner ( Redondo Beach, CA )

A perfect presence in a chic home.

Classic design -- simple, elegant, timeless. Folk art that isn't folksy.

Two pleasant surprises:

1) The dark brown glass eyes.

2) Scale: Nice size and weight. I read the dimensions before buying it, but they didn't register until I took it out of the box -- this is a substantial bird.

I can see why the Eameses liked this bird.

Better Than Expected!

This is a beautiful piece of folk art! It exceeded my expectations in every way. It is a good size and heavier than expected. It is well balanced and has a lovely finish. Looks great on my mantle. First time shopping at Zwello, but will definitely return.

By: P. Lofgreen, Architect ( Utah )

My favorite birdie nevermore!

Calm, quiet, watchful, soulful. Everything you could ask for from a bird without all the flying and calling.

By: thorcrane, Designer ( San Francisco )

Great Product. Slow Shipping.

I bought this product as a wedding gift. They absolutely loved the gift, it is a beautiful piece. Unfortunately it took over a month to get the piece. I wish I knew this was the case when I ordered it. I just received an email a couple days after I ordered it that it would ship in 3-4 weeks. Needless to say, we didn't have the gift in time for the wedding.
